Adjournment Village of Walden Board of Trustees Meeting December 11,2001 Mayor Rocco Pellegrino called the regular meeting of the Village of Walden Board of Trustees to order at 6:30 P.M. On roll call Mayor Rocco Pellegrino, Deputy Mayor Roy Wynkoop, Trustees Mary Jean Norman, Richard Hurd, Bill Meisel, Craig Maslik and Conrad Flickenschild were present. Village Manager James Politi, Village Clerk Nancy Mitchell and Village Attorney Kevin Dowd were also present. Approval of Minutes Trustee Flickenschild moved to adopt the minutes of November 27,2001. Seconded by Trustee Norman. All ayes. Motion carried. Public Comment Becky Pearson, 167 Walnut Street asked if the signs around the monument were coming down or staying up? Manager Politi advised her that they are coming down. Bill Kiman, 47 Walker Street indicated that the zoning board approved building lots at the top of Walker Street and Center Street, which were existing lots with no street frontage. He believes the Village Law states that you shouldn't be able to build on a lot without street frontage. He thinks this is a bad precedent to be setting. He would like the trustees and village manager to look into this. Jessica Metzger 82 Wait Street inquired about the stop signs on Highland Avenue. Manager Politi advised her that they will be put up. Frank Power 175 South Montgomery Street stated that he would like the village to take a look at the Hecht property. They are dumping dirt and they have a storage shed there. Manager Politi indicated that he will follow up on this. Page-1- Lori Keator, 29 Rifton Place asked for an update on 50-52 South Montgomery Street. Manager Politi stated that the time is not up yet. They are moving along. Becky Pearson stated that she doesn't think the rail trail should be paved because people are moving here from the city and they are trying to get away from black top and macadam. It's so much prettier not to have it black topped. From New Paltz down it's not black topped. She asked if the board felt it should or shouldn't be black topped? Mayor Pellegrino stated that he and Trustee Flickenschild walked the trail today. He also indicated that acquiring the grant calls for the trail to be black topped. There are some steep inclines that will need fencing. Lisa Melville indicated that there are lots of other things besides paving. Frank Ciliberto stated that when the houses were built on Berwick Avenue the developer destroyed his property. They promised to drop off top soil and to this date nothing has been done. Mrs. Reggero stated that she is trying to build her house and she has a question regarding the service line and no one will return her phone call. This has nothing to do with the law suit. She needs to know if there is a problem on her property. She also needs to know what the village found out when the videoed the line. Manager Politi asked Mrs. Reggero to call him tomorrow. Presentation Mayor Pellegrino presented Derrick Wynkoop, representative of the Walden Local Development Corporation with a certificate for the efforts in planning, designing and building the children's playground at Wooster Grove. Payment of Audited Bills Trustee Wynkoop moved to pay the audited bills of December 11,2001. Seconded by Trustee Norman. All ayes. Motion carried. Resolution No. 14-01-02, Authorizing the Village Manager to Submit a Grant to the Orange County Municipal Parks Planning Advisory Board Trustee Flickenschild moved to adopt Resolution No. 14-01-02, Authorizing the Village Manager to Submit a Grant to the Orange County Municipal Parks Planning Advisory Board. Seconded by Trustee Maslik. All ayes. Resolution adopted. Page-2- Maplebrook Subdivision Status Manager Politi advised the Board that the engineer has estimated that it will cost $106,405.00 to complete the work at Maplebrook Subdivision and the developer has agreed to pay this to the Village and the Village will finish the work. Trustee Flickenschild indicated that he has difficulty removing the money for the trees. Manager Politi explained that they were trying to come to an agreement on the number, what they had available in the corporation as opposed to what was needed to complete the project. Since the neighborhood has been there awhile their landscaping is pretty far along. We thought if we took that number out we'd get closer to what they were offering. Trustee Flickenschild asked what kind of a bond were they required to put up? Mr. Dowd stated that there is a performance bond of $200,000.00 that is still in effect. What would happen is if they did not complete the project you would begin proceedings against the bonds and where ever that took you the bonding company would come in and finish it or you would end up in litigation, suing the developer and the bond company. They have proposed that if we give them back the bond they will give us this cash and the village will be able to finish whatever has to be done in the subdivision minus the street trees. They want to be out of this all together. Its been going on so long that they have lost money on this project. The way they get out is by giving the village the money and saying they don't want anymore responsibility. Trustee Meisel asked if this will cost the village any money? Manager Politi stated its not going to cost us anything. Trustee Meisel asked if in the future can the village choose not to deal with a bonding company that so loosely finances obligations? Mr. Dowd stated that was a very unusual situation with this bonding company. Most bonding companies don't go belly up and most bonding companies aren't willing to come into the project and complete them. You end up fighting in court. Trustee Wynkoop indicated that these people have been waiting a long time for their streets to be finished and their storm sewers finished. Mr. Dowd explained that one of the alternatives would be to enact a law that would require them to put up bonds in the form of letters of credit or cash. Page-3- Village of Walden Board of Trustees Meeting December 11,2001 Trustee Flickenschild moved to authorize the work to be done at Maplebrook Subdivision by the village at a cost to the developer of $120,000.

  • LOCAL IMPACTS and COSTS Exhibit IX. A.2.B Traffic and Roadway
    LOCAL IMPACTS AND COSTS Exhibit IX. A.2.b The proposed Resorts World Hudson Valley is a mixed use development that will incorporate a 600‐room hotel with a full‐service gaming facility and a conference center, along with associated, complementary amenities on an approximate 373‐acre site. Potential impacts include those to traffic and noise, watershed impacts from stormwater and wastewater discharge, and hydrologic impacts to surface waters and wetlands. The design for Resorts World Hudson Valley has been developed in conjunction with LEED® measures to minimize impacts to the greatest extent possible. Where impacts cannot be avoided, RW Orange County LLC has developed a cohesive mitigation strategy as detailed in Exhibit IX.A.3 Mitigation of Impact to Host Municipality and Nearby Municipalities. Traffic and Roadway Infrastructure Preliminary Transportation Demand Impacts Development of the proposed Resorts World Hudson Valley would generate substantial numbers of new vehicular trips by auto, taxi and bus on the roadway system providing access to the project site. The majority of these trips (approximately 90 percent) would arrive and depart via I‐84, with Route 17K, Route 747 and Route 207 providing local access. Most vehicles destined to/from I‐84 would use the I‐84/Route 747 interchange located immediately to the southeast of the project site which was designed to accommodate future demand from expanded use of the nearby Stewart International Airport. As this airport demand has not been realized, the I‐84/Route 747 interchange typically functions with available capacity during peak periods. A new signalized intersection on Route 17K and a new roundabout on Route 747 would provide access to the proposed project’s internal roadway system.

We work throughout the Hudson River watershed to support community-based watershed groups, help municipalities work together on water issues, and serve as a collective voice across the region. We are a collaborative network of community groups, organizations, municipalities, agencies, and individuals. The Hudson River Watershed Alliance hosts educational and capacity-building events, including the Annual Watershed Conference to share key information and promote networking, Watershed Roundtables to bring groups together to share strategies, workshops to provide trainings, and a breakfast lecture series that focuses on technical and scientific innovations. We provide technical and strategic assistance on watershed work, including fostering new initiatives and helping sustain groups as they meet new challenges. What is a watershed group? A watershed is the area of land from which water drains into a river, stream, or other waterbody. Water flows off the land into a waterbody by way of rivers and streams, and underground through groundwater aquifers. The smaller streams that contribute to larger rivers are called tributaries. Watersheds are defined by the lay of the land, with mountains and hills typically forming their borders.
